A Dabble With Fan Art . . .

Greetings, Dear Friends of The Tearoom!
As many of you may already know, music is an important part of our lives!  Mr. V and I met in a record store in 1984 and ended up working together there.  We love listening to all kinds of music!

Today, I'm making a collage just for fun, inspired by one of my favorite albums so far this year "The Velvet Trail" by Marc Almond.  There are so many great songs on this album!  One of the ones I loved the most is "Pleasure's Wherever You Are".  I really love the visual imagery of it and it inspired me to create a piece of fan art for it!  I do hope Marc does not mind being portrayed as The Dragon Boy!

Images used in my collages today are from the following sources:

    1. Tee-Hee! I would think that Marc would have other things to do, but since his transition to The Dragon Boy, who knows?

      Frankly, I was a bit nervous about making this and I didn't post it for a few days. But Marc re-tweeted it, so he must have thought it was OK after all!

      As always, thanks for your feedback, Bill!
